Today's Story Highlights

Citadel Trojan Adds Keylogging to Arsenal
Cybercriminals are using a new version of the dangerous Citadel Trojan,
which has been employed to attack the financial and petrochemical
industries, to compromise password and authentication solutions, IBM
Trusteer has reported. The new version begins capturing keystrokes, or
keylogging, when some processes are running. It was discovered on a
server that already had been infected.

Russian Site Exposes Thousands of Private Videocam Streams
A Russian website has been posting live video streams from unprotected
webcams in homes and businesses around the globe, Britain's Information
Commissioner's Office warned on Thursday. The website has gained access
to the webcams using the cameras' default login credentials, which are
freely available online but often don't get changed by their owners
during the set-up process.

Cinnamon Desktop Spices Up Makulu Linux
The Makulu Cinnamon Debian Edition 1.1 marks a new path for Makulu. This
latest release has numerous new features that could make it a top
competitor against the Linux Mint Cinnamon edition. Makulu Cinnamon
Debian Edition, or MCDE, has fewer standard apps than the previous
Makulu Xfce and KDE versions offered. Dropping the kitchen sink
philosophy has made it a lot less unwieldy.

Twitter Opens Entire Multibillion-Tweet Gold Mine to Searchers
Twitter this week began indexing every public tweet posted since it
began operating in 2006. "Our long-standing goal has been to let people
search through every tweet ever published," said Yi Zhuang, who led the
project team. Use cases Zhuang cited for the new infrastructure include
results for entire TV and sports seasons, conferences, industry
discussions and long-lived hashtag conversations.
